GI: BakerBM Parts - Scott - 23-06-2012
Just a thread to gauge interest on some of the parts currently supplied by BakerBM.
Myself and Grant are interested in their rear mounts, as I've had solid rear mounts before and like the way they drive, and at £130 for a normal set to the £155 for the BakerBM ones (which I've seen in person, they look amazing quality and very well fabricated). As said they're £155 retail, however if we can get a few more interested it might be possible to get a good discount on them and collect them at Pugfest next weekend.

I'm also planning on getting some gear linkages from them.

If we can get enough interest then we might be able to get them to agree to a bit of discount if we order in advance and collect them at Pugfest. If people want their parts but aren't at Pugfest then I'm sure we can sort something out with picking parts up for you and posting them out.
Taking into consideration the prices at FCS, I'd imagine the prices will be the same at Pugfest this weekend, and we may even be able to get a little more off:
Cheers

Hmm, I do quite fancy some engine mounts. Are theirs solid or stiff rubber?
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Chris - 23-06-2012
Scott, 155 is plus vat, but still a qualty pproduct that is very well made. Used to have a set on my old hdi
Bought a set of monts at fcs and had a chat with the guy on the stall.
I'll be ordering a set of rear mounts at some point, but got to pay off a few other things first.
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Scott - 23-06-2012
Ah that's a good point. Well they were doing them for £150 at FCS, so I'm guessing if we can get a group buy on we might be able to knock another tenner or so off. Especially if we're ordering a good number of parts at the same time.
Chris I don't think they're completely solid, just very stiff rubber.
D@wson are you going to Pugfest?
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - tsotd - 23-06-2012
ive got bbm stuff all over my 205 and its great
cant recomend them enough
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - puglove - 23-06-2012
For everyone thinking of engine mounts, If any one is considering putting them on a daily driver id recomend going out in a 306 that has some, iv recently fitted some to my 6 and it sends alot of vibrations through the car.
Scott: could you give me a little info on how the beam mounts handle? i could well be interested but iv heard you loose some of the characteristic's of how a 306 handles? when would you be looking to place an order?
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - cwspellowe - 23-06-2012
Puglove, am well aware of that as I used to have Group N mounts on my gti6. Worth noting for the inexperienced though and powerflex mounts are nothing compared to solid rubber/solid billet mounts.
I need them to tighten the front up though. Can't have that engine wobbling about in there...
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - spike2002 - 23-06-2012
Ive got bbm already fitted says bbm on the mounts but the gear box one is nackerd. id be intrested in just this the gear box mount if possable

They help with keeping the car straight under heavy braking, and on cornering you have better control over lift off oversteer, as you will still get it at high speed/rpms, but then back on the throttle again as usual and it's all under control.
Replacing with OE mounts will be a good idea anyway bearing in mind if you are replacing not to get the standard ECP/GSF jobbies, apparently they supply the same stiffness -giggidy- mounts for all 306s, but they're made for the 1.4 so they aren't as stiff as they should be for a GTi-6.
Take a look here

RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - puglove - 23-06-2012
Everyone is just describing the problems im having, especially on the breaking side of things im have some sketchy moments, and with 4 pots in the pipe line this is prob a good idea, And being a 38k car its not like my current mounts are shagged or anything, Right if all goes well and you place an order after 18th next month im up for it mate.
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Scott - 23-06-2012
Even still mate, even though it's only on 38k the rubbers can still perish
Well this group buy is potentially to get everything for Pugfest next week. If we do get some stuff though, I'll try to have a chat with Stewart and see if we can get a forum discount on the go year round, so even if people miss out now there may still be things further down the pipeline.
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - puglove - 23-06-2012
Alright mate nice one, cheers

Time generally takes it's toll on a car more than mileage I find!
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Matt - 23-06-2012
I want rear beam mounts, if we can get a ballpark figure then I can start counting my pennies
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Scott - 23-06-2012
They were £150 at FCS, so I'd say that's our starting point
It might be cheaper if Niall offers a banana , which I don't doubt he will.
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Matt - 23-06-2012
Right okay. I'll have to get back to you next week of that's cool? See how much I've sold of the xsFAIL before then

As per usual, if I think I'm going to get something out of it, he will have no say in the matter

RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - mark_airey - 23-06-2012
I would be interested in the gear linkages scott if you can get them at the FCS price or better
you could even post them with the coloured tubes that I stupidly forgot about!(23-06-2012, 07:22 PM)cwspellowe Wrote: Puglove, am well aware of that as I used to have Group N mounts on my gti6.

Mate seriously do not fit solid engine mounts to the XUD, it will vibrate the whole car apart, ask ruan, his was so bad that he removed it again as it was actually shaking his dash apart!!
GI: BakerBM Parts - Jonny b - 23-06-2012
Is that 150 + vat Scott? How much are the engine mount kits as well
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Scott - 23-06-2012
Ah that's a point, he did mention solid mounts made his dash fall apart
Mark that's cool, I'm sure we can sort something out. Maybe even better than FCS press considering what Grant managed to blag his for...
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Grant - 23-06-2012
Considering they're £155 at retail, I would like to hope we could see about the £130 mark with enough interest...
The engine mounts are a 'stiffer' rubber. Sod having welded engine mounts! lol, that would be tragic.
I will be buying the engine mount kit, and the rear beam kit, so hopefully I may get a little discount...
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Scott - 23-06-2012
Right, for Pugfest only:
Scott: Rear beam mounts, gear linkages
Grant: Engine mounts, rear beam mounts
Mark_Airey: Gear linkages
Also Grant, they retail at £155 plus VAT, making it £186 for a set buddy.
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Niall - 23-06-2012
How much is the engine mount kit?
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Grant - 23-06-2012
£88 on the site Niall, so as per Scotts latest post I would assume thats plus VAT
Scott: Doh! more money lol, I should read stuff properly...

Me also, plus I managed to blag my way into having the ones that where on show haha he cut them off the stand and gave me discount. Winnar!
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Scott - 23-06-2012
Awesome.
Jonny that's £150 total.
Engine mounts...not 100% but they were sub-£70 cash at FCS I believe?
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Chris - 23-06-2012
Got my solid engine mounts for £80 at fcs and he chucked in a gear link clip I needed also.
Just hope they won't be too bad in the hdi.
RE: GI: BakerBM Parts - Niall - 23-06-2012
Will let you know on Thursday about engine mounts. Probably s yes!
